## Ways to pay less

- **Yearly billing saves 10%** (Annual discount): The pricing page has a Yearly toggle labeled Save 10%. Source: https://www.scrapeless.com/en/pricing

## Key features

- **Google Search API:** Returns Google results as structured JSON with country and language targeting; proxy and CAPTCHA handling are included.
- **AI scrapers:** Separate scrapers for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overview, returning responses and citations for AI-visibility tracking.
- **Agent Browser:** A cloud browser compatible with Puppeteer and Playwright, with live view, session replay and persistent profiles.
- **Web Unlocker and Crawl:** Web Unlocker returns rendered content for a URL and the vendor says you pay only for successful requests. Crawl collects whole sites in JSON, Markdown, HTML or screenshots.
- **Proxies:** Residential, static ISP, datacenter and IPv6 proxies are sold on their own as well as underneath the other products.

## Good for

- Teams collecting Google results alongside AI-engine answers from one vendor
- Developers who need a cloud browser or unblocking for scraping jobs

## Worth knowing

- Billing is by usage from a prepaid balance, so the monthly cost depends on which services are used; the subscriptions only set the discount and concurrency.
- Per the FAQ, if usage is below the monthly commitment the remaining funds are not kept, and automatic renewal charges the next cycle.
- The pricing page shows a yearly option that saves 10%; only the monthly figures were read.
- Raising concurrency limits or buying an enterprise package involves a KYC check by the sales team.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. Scrapeless sells cloud browsers, a Google Search API, AI scrapers and a web unlocker, billed from a prepaid balance. Subscriptions at $49, $199 and $399 only set your discount and concurrency, so the monthly bill depends on what you use. You need to write code to use it, and raising limits can involve a KYC check.

- **Value for money: C.** Basic has no monthly fee and bills at list prices: $1.00 per 1,000 Google searches and $0.09 an hour for a browser. Growth is $49 a month for 10% off, and unused funds do not carry over.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free trial activates on sign-up, but the amount is not stated on the pricing page. There is no free plan after it.
- **Features: B.** Cloud browsers, a search API, AI scrapers, a web unlocker, crawling and proxies from one account. The listing names no gap in the scraping job.
- **Ease of use: D.** No store rating on record. It is built for developers: you drive it from Puppeteer, Playwright or an API.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web service and API, with Puppeteer, Playwright, Browser-Use and Stagehand listed. No desktop or phone app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Scrapeless you would be making search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 30 of the 56 other SERP and SEO data APIs grade higher. It costs $588 a year.

- You could not: Search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked.
- You could not: An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Puppeteer, Playwright and Browser-Use among them, and has an API.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
